Yep it's Ivermectin I got from the local feed store (in Australia).
I find a big can of spray hard to handle while holding the chicken at the same time, I dip feet in a container of oil or use a paintbrush dipped in oil. I'll give him an oiling tonight ☺️
Back of neck, directly on skin.
I used 0.1 previously, this time 0.3
Ok, I'll repeat in 14 days and hopefully it will rid him of his mites. .. do I repeat in a few weeks after that or months?
I gave Cookie another dose of Ivermectin, this time I think I gave the correct dose- he is a big boy compared to my hens so I think I didn't give him enough before. I'll give another dose in 7 days.
I don't think there was any worm problems in the flock but I did the dewormer BigL just in case since I haven't done it in quite a while.
I'll post a pic later today, his feet are really bad, I treated some of the others with Ivermectin too and their legs cleared up but Cookie's didn't.
I have...
How often can you use Ivermectin?
One of my roosters has scaly legs and I last dosed him 17th June with Ivermectin.
But also dewormed with BigL 17 Aug.
I know Ivermectin is suppose to deworm also but forgot I gave Ivermectin :he .. But then do I use Ivermectin again now or is it too close...
